From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of United States Secretaries of Energy in order of longevity. There are currently twelve Secretaries on the list and twelve living Secretaries. The list is in descending order and is correct as of December 3, 2024. The oldest Secretary is Charles Duncan. He is currently 98 years, 85 days old.

To account for the different number of leap days within the life of each Secretary, two measures of longevity are given. The first is the number of whole years the Secretary lived, and the number of days past their last birthday. The second lists the total number of days lived by the Secretary.
